This is all assuming that the movie is a sequel to the TV series. Because of course, Kawamori has such a great track record with doing that:

Do You Remember Love - retelling of the TV show
Macross Plus Movie - retelling of the OVA
Escaflowne - complete re-imagining
Aquarion - complete re-imagining

Given the announcement so close to the end of the TV show I suspect something like the RahXephon movie - a condensed retelling with a bit of new animation and some new music. I don't know when the Macross Plus film came out but the others came out some time after their original TV shows and Frontier's animation is pretty good already (the off model episodes were all "filler" anyway).

Of course, the real story is going to be down to Hiroyuki Yoshino, and he never fails to write endings that piss people off. Surely Ranka should fall in love with her non-existent father at some point...
